Cowpeas For Livestock Feed And Forage Value
United States Department of Agriculture notes cowpeas offer multiple uses from human food in Asia and the Mediterranean to livestock feed and forage in the United States. They improve soil humus and provide high protein forage, with best results when rotated with corn or sorghum and used for hay or silage rather than direct grazing, especially in southern states. Hogs, cattle, and other livestock can be pastured on cowpeas, with management guiding harvest timing for hay or soiling crops.
